I think it's Moril, the elven girl imprisoned in Bernard Loredo's chambers.
Is it her? :D

Ugh, I think I chose a too minor a character for the riddle. :P

Big hint: She lives in Lobinden!
I left my heart to the Wild Hunt a-comin'. I live until the call. And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone. Yes, I'll be leaving in the fall.

I'll repost the riddle, and give my last shot:

Determined to outlive the most powerful
Already one beat her to death's door
Now only the one who is most despised
And she will be well satisfied


Derae, the Elven girl who was kidnapped, raped and beaten almost to death by Loredo... Later rescued by the Witcher.

Perhaps "already one beat her to death's door" means that someone else died (reached death's door) before her. Especially since the first line says she is "determined to outlive the most powerful".

I'm confused about the third line: "now only the one (...)". That just doesn't sound right. Perhaps he meant now she is the most despised person (of her town?), or perhaps that she is after the most despised person (of her town?). This last interpretation makes more sense, since her seeking something and eventually achieving it would give her a sense of completion leading to "being well satisfied". In which case it should be something like "Once she gets the one that is the most despised / She will be well satisfied".

Anyway, confusing choice of words and phrasing. I suggest we move on to the next riddle.

I took the "already one" line to mean that she's younger than Geralt. But it could also be hinting at the fact that Geralt died at one point. But only Jobbert can tell us, haha.

Okay, here's one:

I am a traveler, an emissary I am
of a mighty power, not in a way you'd think of,
my charge it is to deem you worthy of help, bob my
way for bits and bob, and then be on your merry way!

That's what I meant.

The answer to the riddle is Chorab's wife. There is a conversation you can have with her, in which she states that she managed to outlive Foltest, and "Now only Loredo, and I'll be on my way." I based the riddle around that. but I guess I was a bit too vague. Plus, big chance that you never talked to her. Sorry guys!

Well, it's cool you chose a very, very secondary character. But no, it's not Shilard.
